Our Roadmap

Towards autonomous video and TV services

Divitel Roadmap

To support our operational services, we have developed a platform that we call the Divitel Quantum Platform. It can be deployed on top of existing ecosystems and helps engineers with their day-to -day maintenance work. We are constantly improving our platform, the above figure shows the different stages of our roadmap.

The most current operational version of our platform is called Quantum Neo – It visualizes insights and provides a real-time overview of the ecosystems health status. It’s dashboards alert our engineers in case of any failure and point out the possible cause. This way, our operational services become bionic – our engineering is supported by technology.

In accordance to our vision, in the upcoming years we will be increasingly adding human insights, making it more intelligent by applying automation, machine learning and artificial intelligence in our efforts to create, predictive, fully autonomous operations.

It all started back in 1995…

Today, we are on a constant mission to increase our customer’ video service quality, operating margin and brand value, so our customers can compete and remain relevant in the dynamic world of video.

You could contact us for anything video delivery related, like for example troubleshooting, system integrations or managed video distribution.

Tomorrow, we will have created increasingly intelligent video services that harness the power of automation to maximize workers’ performance. We promise our customers and employees that we are taking the necessary steps towards achieving this goal in a not so distant future.
